After-Dark(ish) alt account for more personal random thoughts and TMI-ish stuff. The deeper feels. Main: @smackjackal.bsky.social

So far this year, my motivation to do things outside of work has been relatively low. I've been in a funk of circular thoughts since January 17th, when a good friend unloaded on me, explaining why they'd kicked me to the curb without so much as a word or warning.

Been in a pretty negative headspace the past few days, feeling like I should just skip FC again this year. Feeling like I don’t belong, am not wanted, and would be an awkward presence for some individuals to be there at all.

A recent convo helped me sum up my feelings on kink: I’m a gear and rubber fetishist (switch) with a kink for restraint and sensory deprivation, but I have little interest in “BDSM.” I've been meaning to share this, so here it is...

Woke up in a regrettably resentful mood this morning, a feeling that I need to unpack and sort through. Like a mystery box, there's a lot of stuff in there that may or may not be valid on analysis.

I realized, this morning, that don't post much to this account. My head hasn't been in this game for a while, to be honest. Being single and not into hookups seems to be murder for staying actively interested in kink/fetish. Pretty sure that being ACE/Demi isn't doing me any favors, either.
